How much water is floating in a cloud?

The video explores the fascinating world of clouds, starting with their whimsical shapes and leading to the scientific inquiry of their weight. It explains that clouds, particularly cumulus clouds, contain a significant amount of water, equating to hundreds of metric tons. The video then delves into the process of cloud formation, highlighting how water vapor rises, cools, and condenses into droplets. It also discusses the dynamics of clouds, explaining how they remain afloat due to the balance of forces and the slow fall of tiny water droplets. The video concludes by noting that eventually, these droplets will coalesce and fall as precipitation.
